    Abstract: The purpose of this study was to measure the relationship 
  between training assignment and training motivation using self-report questionnaires 
  collected from cadet officers in a military training academy, Malaysia. The 
  outcomes of testing hypothesis using a stepwise regression analysis showed two 
  important findings; firstly, mandatory assignment is significantly correlated 
  with training motivation. Secondly, voluntary assignment is also significantly 
  correlated with training motivation. This result demonstrates that training 
  assignment practices act as important predictors of training motivation in the 
  studied organization. In addition, this study elaborates discussion, implications 
  and conclusion.
